This notice explains what Breeze Marine Boat Service LLC collects about you, why, how long we keep it, and what rights you have. It is written to meet the notice-at-collection requirement of the California Consumer Privacy Act.

The short version. We collect what we need to do the work, invoice it, and be able to prove what was agreed. We do not sell your personal information and we do not share it for advertising. Most of it stays on a computer in our own office.

1. What we collect, and why

What	Why
Name, email address, telephone number, postal address	To contact you, send documents, and issue invoices.
Your relationship to the vessel — owner, co-owner, captain, broker	To know who is authorising the work, and who is responsible for paying.
Vessel details: name, make, model, year, hull identification number, registration number, engine details, and where it is kept	To do the work correctly, order the right parts, and identify the vessel on documents.
Photographs of the vessel before, during and after work	To record its condition and what was done. This protects you as much as us.
The documents you sign, and your signature	Because they are the agreement between us.
At signing: the date and time, your IP address, your browser and device characteristics, and a fingerprint of the exact document shown to you	So that both of us have a reliable record of what was agreed and when.
At signing, if you provide them: a one-time passcode sent to your email or telephone, a photograph taken at signing, a photograph of your identification with its type and last four digits, and your approximate location	To establish that the signature was made by you. All of these are optional and you can sign without any of them.
Payments, and how they were made	To apply them to the right invoice and meet our tax obligations.
Correspondence with you: emails between you and us about your vessel, which are copied into your job file automatically, and any messages you or we save to the file	To keep a record of what was agreed. Only email to or from an address on your file is copied; nothing else in our mailbox is.

What we deliberately do not collect. We do not store your full driver licence number — only its type and last four digits. We do not store card numbers or bank account numbers. We do not track you across other websites, and the portal sets no advertising cookies.

2. Where it is kept, and who sees it

Your information is held in our own business records. It is seen by the owner and by our technicians, each of whom has their own sign-in, so our records show who did what.

We disclose it outside the business only:

to our email provider, to deliver messages to you;
to our accountant and to tax authorities, as the law requires;
to an attorney, a court, or a collection agency, if a debt or a dispute makes that necessary — and then only what is relevant to it;
to your insurer or a surveyor, where you ask us to; and
where the law otherwise requires it.
to Anthropic PBC, which provides the language model we use to help write and check our own service descriptions and to answer our questions about your file. Only the text of your records is sent, only when we ask a question, and it is used to produce our answer — not to train a model. If you would rather we did not, tell us and we will handle your file without it.

We have not sold or shared personal information in the preceding twelve months, and we do not intend to.

3. How long we keep it

Signed agreements, invoices, job records and photographs are kept for at least four years after the work, because that is the period in which a claim on a written contract may be brought in California (Code Civ. Proc. § 337), and records that are gone cannot defend either of us. Tax records are kept as long as the law requires. Signing passcodes are deleted once used or expired.

4. Your rights in California

You have the right to:

know what personal information we hold about you, and ask for a copy;
correct anything that is wrong;
delete what we hold, subject to the exceptions the law allows — we may have to keep records connected to a signed agreement, an unpaid invoice, a live dispute, or our tax obligations;
opt out of sale or sharing — there is nothing to opt out of, because we do neither; and
not be treated differently for exercising any of these rights. We will not refuse you service, charge you more, or give you a lesser standard of work.

To exercise any of them, contact us using the details below. We will verify who you are before we act — usually by sending a code to the address already on your record — and respond within the time the law allows.

5. Children

The portal is not directed at anyone under 16, and we do not knowingly collect information about children.

6. Security

Access to our records requires an individual sign-in. Documents you sign are fingerprinted so that any later alteration is detectable. No system is perfectly secure, and we do not claim ours is; if anything happens that affects your information, we will tell you.

7. Changes

If this notice changes, the date at the top changes with it.
